Ingredients

4 regular-size (6-inch) pitas, split

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 containers (8 ounces each) store-bought hummus (1 1/2 cups)

2 red bell peppers (ribs and seeds removed), thinly sliced

1 can (14 ounces) artichoke hearts in water, rinsed, squeezed dry, and quartered

1/2 pound ground lamb or beef

Coarse salt and ground pepper

1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Lemon wedges

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Arrange pita halves, cut side up, on two baking sheets; brush with oil.

Spread pitas with hummus; top with peppers, artichoke hearts, and lamb. Season with salt and pepper.

Bake until pitas are golden and crisp and lamb is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley; serve with lemon wedges.
